我想从数据透视表中的另一列中减去一列.'diff' 应该是 2017 年和 2016 年之间的差异

I would like to subtract one columns from another in a pivot table. 'diff' shoud be the difference between 2017 and 2016

raw_data = {'year': [2016,2016,2017,2017],
    'area': ['A','B','A','B'],
    'age': [10,12,50,52]}
df1 = pd.DataFrame(raw_data, columns = ['year','area','age'])

table=pd.pivot_table(df1,index=['area'],columns=['year'],values['age'],aggfunc='mean')

table['diff']=table['2017']-table['2016']

推荐答案

你需要删除 pivot_table 中的 [] 才能不创建 MultiIndex列:

You need remove [] in pivot_table for dont create MultiIndex in columns:

table=pd.pivot_table(df1,index='area',columns='year',values='age',aggfunc='mean')
print (table)
year  2016  2017
area            
A       10    50
B       12    52

table['diff']=table[2017]-table[2016]
print (table)
year  2016  2017  diff
area                  
A       10    50    40
B       12    52    40

另一个可能的解决方案是 droplevel:

Another possible solution is droplevel:

table=pd.pivot_table(df1,index=['area'],columns=['year'],values=['age'],aggfunc='mean')
table.columns = table.columns.droplevel(0)
print (table)
year  2016  2017
area            
A       10    50
B       12    52
